Harpa, Reykjavik, Iceland.

In 2013, the building won the European Union Prize for Contemporary Architecture for its excellent architecture with the glass facade inspired by Icelandic nature. The facade is made up of many three-dimensional glass and steel elements in basalt form. Similar mirror elements can be found in the ceiling. When it is dark, light is projected on the facade of the building. It creates a magical light show reminiscent of the Northern Lights or the beautiful light and colors reflected in the sky at different times of the year when the weather changes.

Harpa was designed by architect Henning Karsen from Copenhagen and with Batterlid arkitektar Hafnarfjördur

Artist Olafur Eliasson designed the glass façade together with the architects.

Hallgrímskirkja
Hallgrímskirkja

Hallgrímskirkja in Reykjavic at 244ft tall is the largest church in Iceland and one of the largest buildings in the entire country, even for a very laid back country it's quite amazing that it took a rather pedestrian 41 years to complete!

This was shot just prior to dawn, there was some great heavy cloud movement this morning so ideal for a long exposure, only needing to use the little stopper at this time of day to give well over a minute of exposure time, even at the widest end of my wide angle lens and from a low perspective was it possible to get the full height of the building in, it's that big. Soon after this the useful dark clouds emptied their wares and it didn't stop raining for a good while, this would turn out to be the only morning of the trip I was able to get this shot so well worth getting out of bed on that occasion. Gone for a square format in mono as I think it suits the subject well, colour wasn't really bringing anything to the table with this shot.
